PluginFox offers the Omnipressor ($149 value) compressor plugin by Eventide as a free download for a limited time only. UPDATE: THIS WAS A PRICING ERROR. The product page on PluginFox is now updated and it shows the correct pricing.
Omnipressor by Eventide is a virtual compressor/expander effect that emulates the original Omnipressor hardware unit from the 1970s. The original hardware unit was designed by Eventide’s founder, Richard Factor. It introduced several new concepts, such as the “look ahead” dynamic processing, which is now the staple of many digital compressors and limiters.

The Omnipressor plugin is Eventide’s own detailed emulation of the “black-face” hardware unit. It brings all the original Omnipressor features into the digital audio workstation domain, including compression, expanding, gating, and limiting.
The freebie Omnipressor page at PluginFox is pictured below. The plugin normally costs $149, and it’s available for free download.
Here is the official description of the Eventide Omnipressor plugin:
The Omnipressor plug-in is a faithful emulation of the “black-face” unit. It is popular among some of the world’s leading producers and engineers as a dynamics-modifier with variable expressive controls of all aspects of a signal’s dynamics. The Function control allows you to set compression and expansion ratios over a wide, continuous range from extreme expansion to infinite compression and beyond – dynamic reversal, which reverses a sound’s envelope, making loud sounds quiet and quiet sounds loud.
Use the Function switch to alter the compression mode. It adjusts compression ratio across a range of different settings, from expansion to limiting and dynamic reversal.
The plugin also features a side-chain input, a mix knob for easy parallel compression, a gain reduction meter, gain and attenuation limiting, and a preset manager.
Omnipressor is free for a limited time only at PluginFox. Visit the product page linked below and complete the free checkout process. The plugin is delivered via email as a digital download.
Eventide Omnipressor is available in VST, AU, and AAX plugin formats for digital audio workstations on PC and Mac.
UPDATE #1: I finished the checkout process at PluginFox, and Omnipressor is listed on my orders page, but I can’t access the license info. I’ll update the article as soon I figure this out.
UPDATE #2: This was a pricing error and PluginFox fixed it. The deal was too good to be true, I guess!

onMany thanks to our reader Georg for the info about the Omnipressor freebie!
Georg
onI’m so sorry – as Tomislav has pointed out, it seems to have been an honest pricing error and it apparently showed up with a price of $0 for a short while.
Sorry again, it really was not my intention to mislead.
Greetings,
Georg
Tomislav Zlatic
onHey Georg, no reason to be sorry, and thanks again for letting me know about the freebie (even though it turns out it wasn’t an actual freebie :)). With so many crazy deals and freebie offers nowadays, this pricing error seemed like a totally legit offer.
MARTIN
onHey Tomislav. The PluginFox service actually emailed me an iLok license and an activation key about 17 hours ago. And it WORKS! PERFECTLY!
Sadly i haven’t given the Omnipressor a good spin. But from the onset it seems like a decent Dynamics super work horse.
Anyone who checked out before the price was corrected could countercheck their mail just to be sure. Anyway, thanks for the heads up Tomislav.
Rave Satt

Masked tiger

Bethany
onInteresting… Eventide made a very similar mistake themselves the other day and the whole anthology bundle was available as a free upgrade through their site for a few hours…
Tomislav Zlatic
onWith so many deals and offers during Black Friday, it’s easy to make a mistake when manually changing the price tag on a product or a bundle. That’s probably what happened here.
Brenny C
onWha?? Really? Do you know if anyone actually received the bundle for free?
Bethany
onYeah, I did, amongst at least a few others after someone posted about it on gearslutz.
El°HYM
